The purpose of the first public hearing is to receive public comment and objections on the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 Proposed Budget. The first public hearing is being conducted pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes.

The second public hearing is being conducted pursuant to Florida law including Chapters 190 and 197, Florida Statutes. At the conclusion of the public hearings, the Board will, by resolution, adopt a budget and levy assessments as finally approved by the Board. A regular board meeting of the District will also be held where the Board may consider any other business that may properly come before it.

The special assessments are annually recurring assessments and are in addition to previously levied debt assessments. The table below presents the proposed schedule of operation and maintenance assessments. Amounts are preliminary and subject to change at the hearing and in any future year.

The tax collector will collect the assessments for platted lots. The decision to collect special assessments by any particular method - e.g., on the tax roll or by direct bill - does not mean that such method will be used to collect special assessments in future years, and the District reserves the right in its sole discretion to select collection methods in any given year, regardless of past practices.
Failure to pay the assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in a loss of title. All affected property owners have the right to appear at the public hearings and the right to file written objections with the District within twenty (20) days of publication of this notice.
The public hearings and meeting are open to the public and will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Florida Law for Community Development Districts. The public hearings and meeting may be continued to a date, time, and place to be specified on the record at the hearings or meeting.
There may be occasions when staff or board members may participate by speaker telephone.
